Confier à l'Autorité de régulation de la communication audiovisuelle et numérique les missions prévues par le règlement européen sur la liberté des médias

Stage committeeUpdated 2d ago

This French bill would assign the national audiovisual and digital communications regulator, ARCOM, the responsibilities that the EU's European Media Freedom Act requires member states to set up. The EU regulation aims to protect media independence and pluralism, and it sets rules on transparency of media ownership, funding of public service media, and safeguards against interference in editorial decisions. This bill would make ARCOM the body that carries out those duties in France. The main affected parties are ARCOM itself, which would take on new supervisory tasks, and media companies, broadcasters, public service media, and journalists operating in France. Digital platforms that host or distribute media content may also be affected. This summary is based on the bill's title and metadata only, not the full legislative text.
